Cien anos de soledad / One Hundred Years of Solitude

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Muchos anos despues, frente al peloton de fusilamiento, el coronel Aureliano Buendia habia de recordar aquella tarde remota en que su padre lo llevo a conocer el hielo .

Con estas palabras empieza una novela ya legendaria en los anales de la literatura universal, una de las aventuras literarias mas fascinantes del siglo xx. Millones de ejemplares de Cien anos de soledad leidos en todas las lenguas y el Premio Nobel de Literatura coronando una obra que se habia abierto paso a boca a boca -como gusta decir el escritor- son la mas palpable demostracion de que la aventura fabulosa de la familia Buendia-Iguaran, con sus milagros, fantasias, obsesiones, tragedias, incestos, adulterios, rebeldias, descubrimientos y condenas, representaba al mismo tiempo el mito y la historia, la tragedia y el amor del mundo entero.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

One Hundred Years of Solitude is the first piece of literature since the Book of Genesis
that should be required reading for the entire human race… . Mr. Garcia
Marquez has done nothing less than to create in the reader a sense of all
that is profound, meaningful, and meaningless in life. -William
Kennedy, New York Times Book
Review

One of the most influential literary works of our time, One Hundred Years of Solitude remains
a dazzling and original achievement by the masterful Gabriel Garcia Marquez,
winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

One Hundred Years of Solitude tells the story of the rise and fall, birth and death of the
mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendia family.
Inventive, amusing, magnetic, sad and alive with unforgettable men and
women-brimming with truth, compassion, and a lyrical magic that strikes the
soul-this novel is a masterpiece in the art of fiction.
